The figures were provided by officials in the Department of Education, who were appearing before the Oireachtas Education Committee.
Responding to questions from Fine Gael Senator Aisling Dolan, he said that the intake of new students was done in a"very inclusive and integrated way that supports the children and supports their wellbeing given all they've been through".
If 60% are staying forever I hope they’re learning Irish eventually as well. I think that will help them integrate culturally more
I think Ukrainian people should have a right to move to Ireland because Russia faults because of Putin
👍
What about the Irish students. Im sure there must be some kind of language and culture divide
I'm impressed. But. Always a But. Ukrainians will not stand for LGBTQ franchise indoctrination of their children so considering the current attempt to push such indoctrination in Irish schools do you see a future conflict with Ukrainian parents while Irish parents sit on ass?
And will inevitably distract, detract, slow down and lower the standard of Irish children's education. This is not progress.
Sad when far right nuts try to make everyone else see it as a negative that kids, whose houses have been reduced to dust by a nazi, can continue education here. Fair enough complaining about unvetted migrants arriving etc but complaining about ukranian kids is taking the piss
Now this is far better than the usual immigrant stuff. Good stuff
The Great Replacement is a myth…
They need 10 times attention from the teachers so our own kids are missing school time
80,000 - 14,500 = 65,500 adults. Assuming 50% of those adults are men that means roughly 32,750 Ukrainian men fled Ukraine like cowards instead of fighting for their country. If my estimates are incorrect please provide the real figures for Ukrainian male adult refugees.
Pretty cool, hope they are enjoying the establishment education
